INFO:

DarkSide (as he has come to be known) is a limited shape-shifter and a pyrokinetic of moderate ability (whether this is a manifestation of his inert "demon" state, or vice-versa is undetermined.) As a side-effect, his body maintains a high resistance to heat and flame. Born in Scotland in 1632 as Gregor Lamont, and through a soul-bond forged with the mystical Claidhemomhor de a' Dorche (Great Sword of Darkness) he has survived the centuries dodging those that will destroy him out of fear, and fighting a neverending battle against evil wherever he can in a search to find his place in the scheme of things. Through the bond he remains ageless, and can survive nearly any mortal wound. He is not immortal in the true sense of the word, as a simple impact to the head will kill him instantly. In other abilities, DarkSide can bond with matter at the molecular level, or pass through it. He is capable of moderate telekinesis and psionic attacks. Teleportation is in his bag of tricks, but he "usually avoids it because it makes him nausious."

Recently, when the Holy WarpSpasm brought forth the Nemesis hybrid, a kind of schizophrenic personality emerged, as well as newly discovered abilities that he was unaware of- Nemesis is chameleonic with an agility that would make a cat envious, and a surface-hugging capability matched only by Spider-man. His skin is somewhat amorphous, able to change into the bony spines that sprout from his body, creating a sort of natural armor at will.

MISC:

DarkSide's interest in the Jihad was sparked when he and a dear friend were attacked by a group of heavily-armed Wyrm Minions, leaving his friend in critical condition. While he'll quickly admit that his initial reason for applying for membership was a petty act of revenge, he'll also note that he shortly took a real vested interest in contributing to the effort to rid the world of the Hell Wyrm of Lyra and protecting future generations.

In a strange contrast with his Ferality, DarkSide prefers to avoid killing whenever possible, even spongin, in that he believes that there may be hope for any of them. He holds the value of human life in high regard, and will sacrifice himself before he will sacrifice the life of any of his comrades.

In another interesting note, he seems to hold some sort of mental bond with Lady Keili of the LoD and TRES, whom he recently wed, able to sense each other's thoughts and emotions no matter what distance between them.

And he likes cows.
